18th Century Spanish Man-of-war flags

We've released our first 1:600 scale 18th Century Naval flags set, devoted to Spanish warships between 1701 and 1785 --roughly, the lapse of time between the War of Spanish Succession start and the American Revolution aftermath. Under rule of the new Bourbon dynasty, Spanish flags at sea changed quite drastically with regard to previous centuries, now showing the royal arms on a plain white field --for white was the Bourbon livery.

Here above you can see a couple of flag sets used on a frigate and a brig from Peter Pig (painting by myself).
